1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This Opinion summarizes the strategies for anticancer treatment in p53-mutated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). It examines six strategies for anticancer treatment in p53-mutated HNSCC: 1. direct reactivation of mutated p53; 2. activation of p63; 3. activation of p73; 4. degradation of mutated p53; 5. blocking the p53-regulated oncogenic microRNA; and 6. blocking the p53-regulated oncogenic long non-coding RNA. Since HNSCC has a high p53 mutation rate compared to other types of cancers, these strategies for combating p53-mutated HNSCC may prove useful for generating new ideas or methods for developing treatments for other cancers with p53 mutations. This article also explores other factors that may impact the effectiveness of anticancer therapies in p53-mutated HNSCC.
